Collaborative City Governance

Empowering citizens and aligning leadership under a unified goal.

  • The Home Rule Charter is New Orleans’ foundation. We must modernize it to ensure local autonomy and democratic control.
  • A Citizen Bill of Rights will define enforceable service standards for residents — turning complaints into guaranteed protections.
  • Bridget’s mission: unify boards, departments, and policies to serve with one voice and one goal.

Trifecta of Change

Three reforms working together to make government functional again.

  • Charter Reform — Strengthen the City Council’s power to demand accountability
  • Citizen Accountability — Introduce standards and penalties for broken services
  • Government Consolidation — Merge fragmented boards for faster decisions and unified service

City Government Roles

Clarifying responsibility so we know who’s accountable.

  • City Hall: Executive power, department oversight
  • City Council: Legislative authority, reform power, constituent service
  • The Judiciary: Upholds ordinances, resolves disputes, checks executive overreach
